Breakfast Quinua with Bananas and Pecans

Sometimes it is just easier to make breakfast for dinner. We usually do this once a week on days that I am not feeling like cooking a lot. Tonight is one of those nights. I wanted to do something different from an omelet or pancakes so I decided to make something with Quinoa. This is also a healthy and satisfying dinner!! I have never made Quinoa sweet so I grabbed things that I found around the kitchen that I thought would be delicious together. I must say, this concoction turned out AMAZING! This is definitely something that I will be making again!

1/2 cup Quinoa, Rinsed under cold water and drained
1 and 1/2 cups Silk Vanilla Almond Milk
1 Ripe Banana, mashed to desired consistency (I like mine with a few chunks)
Splash of Almond Extract
Touch of Cinnamon
Tiny pinch of salt
A handful of toasted pecans, roughly chopped

In a sauce pan, add the Silk, almond extract, salt, and cinnamon. Once the Quinoa is rinsed and completely drained, add it to the Silk. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer for about 15 minutes or until the Quinoa is tender. Remove from the heat and add the mashed bananas and toasted pecans.
